Find out why autumn is the ideal time for preventive maintenance and how this essential service will keep your HVAC system running efficiently in any season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Confirm Clearance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As the summer breezes by, overgrowth and clutter can obscure your HVAC system\u2019s indoor and outdoor units. Since fall signals both a slowdown in the growing season and the debut of your autumn wardrobe, it\u2019s the ideal time to deal with the mess both indoors and outdoors. After all, your HVAC system\u2019s interior and exterior units require a reasonable amount of clearance to keep the airflow unobstructed and the operation smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside, clear away leaves, twigs, and other debris from the surface of your air conditioner or&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/peppersheatingandair.com\/heating-repair.aspx\">heat pump<\/a>. Trim away trees, shrubs, and tall grass to allow for at least a two-foot clearance around the unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inside, resist the temptation to prop summer beach gear or stack bins of fall clothes against your furnace or air conditioner. Instead, store boxes, bins, and loose items at least a few feet away from your HVAC system to keep things running efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep Efficiency High and Utility Bills Low<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your home is anywhere near average,&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/energy.gov\/public-services\/homes\/heating-cooling\" target=\"_blank\">heating and cooling account for nearly half of your energy expenses<\/a>&nbsp;every year. When you schedule preventive maintenance with Peppers Heating and Air Conditioning, however, you can trust that we\u2019ll keep your HVAC system\u2019s efficiency high while lowering your utility bills. We\u2019ll inspect indoor and outdoor units, check fluid levels, test motors, and look for leaks to be sure that your HVAC system runs as efficiently as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re like most Georgia homeowners, you won\u2019t be ready to switch your system from cooling to heating on the first day of fall. Since you\u2019ll want to warm up the moment that chilly weather arrives, though, you want to know that your heating system is ready and waiting. When you schedule semi-annual maintenance in the early autumn, you can rest assured that your HVAC system will be ready when you need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clear the Air<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your HVAC system does much more than keep your family comfortable. It\u2019s also responsible for keeping your air supply clean and safe. Without regular maintenance, though, your heating and cooling system might be circulating air that\u2019s even more polluted than the air outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the weather starts to cool and you spend more time inside, keeping your indoor air clean is more important than ever. That\u2019s why it\u2019s essential to schedule our semi-annual preventive HVAC maintenance in the fall, when you\u2019ll benefit most from the included air filter replacement. For the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/peppersheatingandair.com\/indoor-air-quality.aspx\">best indoor air quality<\/a>&nbsp;throughout the year, we recommend changing your air filter every one to three months, depending on your household\u2019s HVAC usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stay One Step Ahead of Repairs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>HVAC systems aren\u2019t designed to last forever, but preventive maintenance can add years onto the lifespan of each component. To avoid major breakdowns and serious repairs, be sure to schedule your system inspection before you plan to turn it on for the season. By scheduling your heating system maintenance for early fall, you\u2019ll stay one step ahead of heat pump and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/peppersheatingandair.com\/heating-repair.aspx\">furnace repairs<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your system does require major or minor repairs, our service agreement can help you save even more. You\u2019ll get a 10 percent discount on equipment parts and invaluable peace of mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ensure Safety All Year Long<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Running your heating system without seasonal maintenance can be more than just costly. It can also be dangerous. That\u2019s why our preventive maintenance checklist includes key items like checking for leaks, detecting potential safety issues, and inspecting your carbon monoxide detector. Schedule your home\u2019s heating system maintenance for the fall, and you won\u2019t have to worry about gas leaks, carbon monoxide issues, or other dangers at the height of the heating season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have you made your&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/peppersheatingandair.com\/schedule.aspx\">fall preventive maintenance appointment<\/a>&nbsp;yet?
